Deep learning of wrist accelerometry from UK Biobank data identifies early movement signatures of knee osteoarthritis up to 5 years before diagnosis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 1524-1533, April 2026.
Abstract Purpose This study aims to test whether week‐long wrist accelerometry combined with deep learning can (i) distinguish healthy individuals from people with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), (ii) separate prodromal KOA from established KOA, and (iii) identify individuals who will receive a KOA diagnosis within 5 years.

Effects of Tibial Nerve Electrostimulation in Patients With Fecal Incontinence: A Systematic Review

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective Fecal incontinence (FI) is a condition characterized by the involuntary loss of stool, resulting from the inability to control the sphincter and neuromuscular mechanisms responsible for continence. Percutaneous electrical stimulation of the posterior tibial nerve (posterior tibial nerve stimulation—PTNS) has been used ...

Physiological Responses to Virtual Reality‐Based Stress Regulation and Relaxation Interventions: A Systematic Review

Stress and Health, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Physiological markers are increasingly used to monitor individuals undergoing Virtual Reality (VR) stress interventions. However, several challenges arise when employing these markers to assess the impact of VR stress interventions. This systematic review synthesises and critically discusses the literature on VR stress interventions across ...

Supporting General Practitioners to Deprescribe Benzodiazepines and Z‐Drugs in Primary Care: Findings From a Modified Delphi Study

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 138, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Long‐term use of benzodiazepines and Z‐drugs (collectively known as benzodiazepine receptor agonists; BZRAs) is associated with a range of adverse effects including dependence and withdrawal on stopping or reducing the dose. Deprescribing is recommended to improve patient outcomes and reduce medication‐related harm, but its implementation in ...
